Lime dosing helps neutralize the acidity of winery effluent, which often has a low pH due to fermentation processes. It promotes the precipitation of suspended solids, making them easier to remove. The process also enhances the breakdown of organic matter by creating a more favorable pH for microbial activity. Excess lime can form **calcium salts**, which aid in reducing odors in the effluent. Plus, lime dosing is a cost-effective way to stabilize wastewater before further treatment or reuse!

La Motte’s history dates back to the late 17th century when it was established by French Huguenots who fled to South Africa. The estate is named after La Motte d’Aigues in Provence, France. The architecture reflects its heritage, with well-preserved Cape Dutch buildings that add to its charm.
Beyond wine, La Motte is a center for cultural and artistic endeavours. It hosts the La Motte Museum, which features the works of famous South African artist Jacob Hendrik Pierneef. The estate is committed to promoting South African culture and regularly hosts classical music concerts and art exhibitions.
